Flexibility
While our seasoned experts provide personalized, evidence-based treatment and compassionate care, our flexible schedules empower clients to balance recovery and wellness with their daily responsibilities.
Empowerment
We elevate addiction treatment and mental health care, equipping clients with vital life skills, healthy habits, and coping strategies to help them avoid triggers, embrace wellness, and reclaim their lives.
IOPs for Addiction & Mental Health
Guardian IOPs help clients balance personal, professional, and educational commitments while engaging in mental health or substance use disorder treatment. These programs serve as alternatives to inpatient care or as step-down options after inpatient treatment.
IOP for Substance Use DisordersÂ
Guardian IOP for substance use disorders features a comprehensive, integrated treatment approach that includes a wide range of therapeutic services. Our offerings include group therapy, individual counseling, family therapy, and diverse recovery workshops, along with specialized clinical services tailored to each client’s needs. We also provide Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) as needed to reduce cravings and foster relapse prevention.
At its core, our program supports a gradual return to everyday life, with dedicated clinical staff and a compassionate recovery community supporting clients every step of the way. Although we usually suggest starting our IOP after inpatient treatment, direct entry might be suitable for some clients, such as those who have completed medical detox or are beginning their recovery independently.
IOP for Mental Health DisordersÂ
The Guardian IOP for mental health disorders comprises a trifecta of care, featuring outpatient psychiatry services, individual therapy, and nurturing peer support groups. Providing many of the benefits of inpatient treatment in a less restrictive setting, Guardian IOP includes psychiatric assessments as well as highly tailored treatment plans for conditions ranging from anxiety and depression to bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Featuring individualized care provided by experienced, trustworthy, and supportive professionals, Guardian IOP goes above and beyond weekly therapy sessions to provide holistic care featuring medication management as well as individual, group, and family therapy. Our clinical approach includes treatment protocols in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based treatment, and more.
Virtual/In-Person Hybrid
Guardian’s mental health and substance use disorder IOPs provide unmatched flexibility with the perfect blend of in-person and virtual sessions.

Unlike traditional mental health settings where providers work independently, our coordinated care model ensures all your providers—therapists, psychiatrists, and other specialists—work together as a unified team. They talk regularly to discuss your progress, adjust treatment plans, and ensure all aspects of your care are working in harmony. This approach eliminates the common frustration of having to coordinate between different providers or repeat your story multiple times. Many clients tell us this integrated approach helps them feel truly supported and understood for the first time in their treatment journey.
We accept most major insurance plans. Our insurance specialists will verify your benefits before treatment begins and explain exactly what is covered. For those with out-of-pocket expenses or without insurance coverage, we offer flexible alternative payment options.
